APA (edition "APA 6") Social Sciences

Django Unchained

Based on the approved film you selected in the Module Four assignment, present quotes from each of the colorblind-racism frames, and analyze them accordingly in a minimum of six pages.

As your critical-thinking decision-making objective, you should indicate whether the societal evidence you discuss in the paper:

(a) Demonstrates the typical colorblind pattern that Bonilla-Silva describes in the textbook; or

(b) Reveals a more progressive and/or minority pattern; or

(c) Some combination of the above; or

(d) Some other pattern not discussed in the textbook but worth exploring in future research. 

You may find that the quotes you analyze deliberately challenge one of the four frames of colorblindness in some way, and should note this in the paper as well. 

The paper should also consider the implications of the analysis of colorblindness for the future of multiracial society.  In other words, how do the representations discovered in your analysis help and/or hinder a society’s progress toward inclusive multiracial democracy?
